The Beast - Beauty's Pet

Submission:

Story:

Before you
is the mighty beast... Prince! Prince loves Beauty unconditionally. He wants to
protect her and always be by her side. The latter seems to get more and more
difficult as the years of him being a
small pup are over. Nowadays Beauty is constantly bombarded by marriage
proposals and men courting her. When the opportunity presents itself, Prince chases
these men off and bites their bottoms as they run away. Then he gets grounded
to the doghouse and is rarely allowed to come in the house anymore. There is
nothing much to do, except eat and destroy his toys, in hopes that Beauty will
allow him back to the house to calm him down.

Hey everyone, joining in a little late, let's see if I can finish this in time!I wanted to give a comical approach to the subject, so here he is the beauty's pet.More props to be added later probably, and the pose is rough.. not sure if I should model him posed or not yet, it looks like it could prove difficult to pose him like that at the end.

Another update, retopoed and baked everything, now starting textures for the beast. Roughness looks a bit off in Marmo screens compared to Substance.Still tinkering with pose, the body feels very weightless so I m open to ideas!beast:15k tris, base 4,8k or so, and I m having a single 4096 texture for each.

Great style, textures look great too! my only crit is the textures are looking a bit plasticy at the moment, esp the skin. and yeah, Iit sucks that roughness from substnace and Marmoset are not matching

@Mr Flopsie , thank you, substance is pretty nice for stylized, I don't use much else anymore, the brush certainly doesn't feel as fluid as photoshop so in case you texture something with extensive diffuse usage you will need to go in PS still.@lotet, thanks man, yeah trying to get rid of the plastic feel, got the roughness to display correctly as well again solution here in case anyone comes across this!

Overall good job. Id go light pink around the nose, chest and above the paws. Then dark for the paws themselves. As for the hair. Light brown for the tips. I would rip the toy up and also dirty him up a bit. Thats my two cents.

Another update, worked mostly on the base since it was so gray and dull, some work on the beast as well, toned down the glossiness and added a little variation, definitely needs another pass to make it more interesting.

Thanks @lotet, yeah posing is definitely not my strong point, I think I improved it a little here, but still, I will try to sneak in a pose update before the deadline if I get something better.Submission incoming! Here are a few more shots other than the two for submission.
